English to Indonesian: Falling By The Wayside, Trees for Change Series No.11, ICRAF Detailed field: Environment & Ecology
Source text - English Fifty-six nurseries were established between 2007 and 2009. Of these, 24 were ‘spontaneous’, set up by farmers who had been impressed by the activities they had observed from a distance. Field staff from the World Agroforestry Centre, led by Roshetko and Pratiknyo Purnomosidhi, conducted intensive training sessions at the nurseries. “We needed a lot of input,” recalls Usman, a rubber farmer in Rimbong village. “We’d never had any nurseries in this area before, so everything was new to us.”
Some farmers also benefited from study tours to other parts of Sumatra, where rubber farmers have more than doubled their yields during recent years. Prior to the tsunami, average rubber yields in Aceh were a meagre 800–1200 kilograms per hectare per year. Once the produce of the NOEL nurseries reaches maturity, many of Aceh’s farmers will have much more rubber to sell than they had in the past.
Research suggests that there are three factors which determine the success of tree nurseries in Indonesia. First, farmers need access to good-quality planting material. Second, nurseries only succeed if those managing them receive comprehensive training with frequent followup visits. Third, nurseries which want to operate commercially must have good access to the market. In Aceh, the World Agroforestry Centre has supplied nurseries with high-quality clones and provided training. There is also a high demand for seedlings, as government departments are currently undertaking a massive reforestation and rehabilitation programme.
Translation - Indonesian Lima puluh enam pesemaian didirikan antara tahun 2007 dan 2009. Dari 56 pesemaian tersebut, 24 di antaranya didirikan secara ‘spontan’ oleh para petani yang terkesan oleh kegiatan yang mereka perhatikan dari kejauhan. Staf lapangan dari World Agroforestry Centre, dipimpin oleh Roshetko dan Pratiknyo Purnomosidhi, menjalankan sesi pelatihan intensif di pesemaian. “Kami membutuhkan banyak masukan,” kenang Usman, petani karet di Desa Rimbong. “Kami tidak pernah punya pesemaian di daerah ini sebelumnya, jadi semuanya baru untuk kami.”
Beberapa petani juga mendapatkan manfaat dari kunjungan belajar ke daerah lain di Sumatra, tempat para petani karet sudah melipatgandakan hasil panen mereka dalam beberapa tahun terakhir. Sebelum tsunami, hasil panen karet rata-rata di Aceh hanya mencapai 800-1.200 kilogram per hektar per tahun. Setelah produksi pesemaian NOEL mencapai usia dewasa, akan ada banyak petani Aceh yang memiliki lebih banyak karet untuk dijual daripada yang dulu mereka miliki.
Penelitian menjelaskan ada tiga faktor yang menentukan kesuksesan pesemaian pohon di Indonesia. Pertama, para petani membutuhkan akses akan bahan tanam berkualitas baik. Kedua, pesemaian akan sukses hanya jika pihak pengelola menerima pelatihan komprehensif dan selanjutnya harus sering dikunjungi. Ketiga, pesemaian yang ingin beroperasi secara komersial harus memiliki akses pasar yang bagus. Di Aceh, World Agroforestry Centre menyuplai bibit kualitas tinggi dan menyediakan pelatihan kepada pesemaian tersebut. Karena departemen pemerintahan sedang melaksanakan reforestasi dan program rehabilitasi besar-besaran, ada permintaan tinggi untuk semai.

Experience
Years of experience: 15. Registered at ProZ.com: Jan 2009.
I actually started working as a translator before I graduated, when I was still trying to finish my English Literature degree in Bandung, Indonesia. One of the early jobs, around 2006, that I got was through a friend and it was a subtitling project. I remember that I wasn't paid a lot of money, but it was so fun and exciting as the documentary film that needed the subtitle highlighted important issues in Indonesia.
I graduated in 2008, and started working full-time as an editor in a small advertising company in Bandung. I worked full-time as a translator for 3 years before I eventually decided to work as a freelancer. Over the years, I have translated various documents and finished different projects. I had the experience of working as a full-time editor/translator in one of the biggest publishing companies in Indonesia and I'm still now providing service for them on a freelance-basis. Several of my fiction translations have been published by this company.
Other than that, I have an on-going working relationship with several international NGOs in Indonesia who are working in different fields, including agroforestry, forestry, agriculture, development, capacity building, etc. I'm also still working as a freelance fiction translator for Gramedia Pustaka Utama, one of the largest publishing companies in Indonesia. I learned a lot from the projects that I have completed over the years and I realised that translating is not just work for me, but also a hobby.
I'm familiar with narrative and how to translate a story, which is why I'm now adding my experience as a game LQA. I'm working with one localisation agency in the UK (Universally Speaking). I wouldn't say I'm a gamer but I do play quite a lot of video games, so I'm not a stranger to the language and narrative in various games. Games with a good story are just like good novel, and I like translating both.
